Ready for Paint

Well the term “making a bed” has taken on new meaning for me. Sophie’s new bed is finished. I have a little bit of fine sanding to do and then it is ready to be painted.

I’m happy with the way this project went. The new tools and experience I’ve gained in the 2 years since I built the crib made things go much smoother. The extra workspace provided by the deck is fantastic and I do all my cutting and sanding outside so the shop isn’t covered with sawdust now.

I think I’m going to take a break tomorrow and let my thumbs calm down a little before I start the next piece. I’ve got some catching up to do on the house and yard, too.

Here’s what the naked bed looks like. I hope Sophie likes it.
